"Biden" Signed an Executive Order Relieving "Day Cares" of the Need to Provide Verification of Their "Enrollees"

What? They just ended all requirements of verification of actual child enrollees and just sent out hundreds of millions of dollars based on a number written on a form?

This is intentional. This is the deliberate enabling of fraud.

This is conspiracy.

The Biden administration didn't require verification that kids were attending child care centers before sending them as much as $19 billion in federal funding, a stunning oversight the Trump administration is trying to reverse.

Trump Health and Human Services officials announced Monday it would restore "attendance-based billing" and reverse a Biden-era practice of states paying the child care centers without proper checks, the Post can exclusively reveal.

The President Biden rule took effect on April 30, 2024, meaning more than $19.3 billion in taxpayer dollars over 20 months may have been spent before President Trump could correct provisions that could have prolonged massive day care fraud in Minnesota.

"Congress appropriated this funding to support working families and ensure children have safe places to grow and learn," HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said.

"Loopholes and fraud diverted that money to bad actors instead. Today, we are correcting that failure and returning these funds to the working families they were meant to serve."

Between 2021 and 2024, the Administration for Children and Families shelled out more than $91.8 billion from its Child Care Development Fund (CCDF), a federal block grant program that helps fund child care in states, US territories and tribes, per HHS data.

A whopping $56 billion went out the door just in 2021, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Why would there be an urgent need to send out $56 billion for "day care" during the "height of covid," when 80% of the population was under orders to remain at home?

Yes, some people needed day care because Democrats also shut down the schools, and they were considered "essential workers."

But this would still mean that most children were now at home with their imprisoned parents. Only a fraction would need day care.
